Melody Has Returned Back - Utthaan Review by Vivek Sharma

Kumar Sanu has proved that he is also a GREAT MUSIC DIRECTOR besides being an outstanding singer.

The MELODY which is lost in nowdays in hindi movies is brought back by Kumar Sanu’s refreshing compositions of Utthaan.

Music of Utthaan has brought back a NEW ERA of MELODIOUS hindi movie music (which was spoiled by "dhak chak dhak chak" ear shattering nasal songs of Himesh Reshmaiya)

Songs:-

1) Ab Neend Kise :- THIS SONG HAS POTENTIAL TO CREATE RECORDS. Very nicely composed....Great work Mr. Sanu.

2) Ye Kaisa Utthaan :- Asha Bhosle’s velvetic voice, over such a natural and heart touching composition by Kumar Sanu, penetrates your soul. I can imagine 100 violens playing at a time in this music. Hat’s off to you Kumar Sanu for such a GREAT COMPOSITION !!!! Sonu has also sunged this song very nicely.

3) Abhi Tum ho Kamsin :- Again a high class song by KING OF MELODY & ROMANTIC SONGS, Kumar Sanu.

4) Everything is Okay :- This is again very well composed fast track song. This song will be played surely in ever dance party!!!!


To sum up:- THIS IS BIRTH OF A GREAT MUSIC DIRECTOR-KUMAR SANU .

Utthaan Music Review - by Altafbhai

This is singer Kumar Sanu’s music director debut in Hindi films (he did a private album before called Kaise Kahoon). Judging from the cover there seems to be great music in store also since it is known that Pyarelal (from the Laxmikant Pyarelal fame) has lent a hand in arranging the music.

’Yeh Kaisa Utthaan Hai’ has 2 versions (by Asha and Sonu). The Asha version is indeed preferable and also longer. Asha sounds much younger than in her other recent songs and sings this song with great feeling. Sonu Nigam also sounds much more fresh than usual. But the highlight of this song is the piano music in the beginning and end - what a tune! Also it for sure seems that Kumar Sanu used no electronic instrument for this song. Great start

’Ab Neend Kise’ also has 2 versions (alas one is a Remix of the other). Sung by Kumar Sanu and Alka, this song continues in the modern mold of bollywood music and yet goes further with atleast some melody infused. This is like a Himesh Reshamiya song sung by professional singers, and indeed the music is also well arranged. One thing to note is that the music needs no equalization - just listen to it as is. This is a sure fire HIT

’Abhi Tum Ho Kamsim’ is the 90’s style melody romantic song. A very listenable song, I particularly like the talking and little laughs in between. This is a must for all melody lovers

’Thok Dalega’ is the one passable song of the album from a musical point of view (don’t all albums have them? - almost). This is a situation number and its true value will depend on the film. Singing by Hema Sardesai is OK

Overall, a great start for Kumar Sanu. In this album there is a variety of different types of songs but all will cater to the broad audience. Kumar Sanu has brought back the time when music was created with a passion and this has left me wanting more. Keep it up!

Utthaan - '’The Upliftment"

A Film by KUMAR SANU

The story of Utthaan relates to the generation of today's youth who want to reach the top by any means but they do not have any direction.They are engrossed in reaching to the top and getting the maximum facilities with maximum monetary benefit in the shortest time.The glitter of money and the glamour of the chair is all that counts to enter the elite society.To achieve this,they use any means at the cost of their principles and self respect.

This story depicts characters who employ these methods.The story is set in today's world destroyed by the corruption.Politics of today has become such a corrupt business that the people enter it to achieve power ,money and influence.

The story brings out the darker shade of media which plays an important role in this corrupt system. The media plays an important part to elevate somebody or destroy somebody. The youth of today therefore enter the media in order to achieve their unlimited selfish ambition. They forget their honesty, origin and indulge in hypocrisy. The result is that they are instrumental in destroying the values and principles of the country.




The story raises some burning issues ,how the youth can contribute to the upliftment of the country but actually they are destroying the country because of their selfish ideology. Judging the present situation, what will be the situation tomorrow?




The hero of the story Prashant Bharti is a media man from Mumbai who wants to expose corrupt politicians. He is graduate from Lucknow University who won the post of president of student union twice and his aim is to get the top for which he becomes friendly with Kiran Talreja,a beautiful hi-fy model whom he met at the Lakme Fashion Show who also wants to reach the top by hook or crook.The hero realize that Kiran is the right person to help him achieve ambition,for that reason he encourages and introduces her to his social circle and his superiors who are helping him.




The story exposes how both of them have abandoned all the principles to achieve their ambitions and in this process they have become enemies of each other and want to kill each other !!
